U of A Senior Day

"Redout" Stadium

This weekend was great. I started off with a club soccer game and the next day I was able to go get new turfs, which are basically cleats for playing indoor. If you are wondering why I got those, I also just started an indoor league! But the best part of the weekend was the U of A game.

 My dad had a friend that gave him two tickets and it was going to be at 2:00 on Saturday. We were playing Stanford, who is not that good, and I was really excited to go. So right after the soccer game, my dad and I started driving straight to Tuscon.

 When we got there, we went into a parking garage that was about half a mile from the stadium. We had about an hour, but only because I wanted to go in really early so that we could watch warm ups. There were many restaurants there for lunch, but thankfully they had a Subway right around the block.

Eat Fresh

After that, we walked to the campus and ate there, and after THAT we walked to the stadium. The stadium was really cool inside and they had retired jerseys on the walls and many athletes names were hung up in a ring above the court. We watched the teams warm up, and eventually they tipped off and the game had started.

Arizona started off strong with a 7-2 lead, and from there on out it just got worse and worse for Stanford. When you took your seat, there was a sign that had a 3 on it that you hold up when ever someone hit a three pointer, and you really got your money's worth out of it. Gabe York hit 3 threes in a row and could not miss, while Kaleb Tarczewski was dunking every chance he got. They were both seniors, so it was their last time playing at McKale Center. Even the backup that was a senior hit two threes in a row, and he was going crazy.

 The game finally finished, leaving Stanford fans crying at home. The final score was 94-62. Afterwards, there was a senior ceremony which was really nice, and I got to listen to Sean Miller's (who is the head coach) voice crack in real life!

 Afterwards, we walked back down the campus to the car, stopped at an Albertsons, and drove back home. Well, thanks for reading and tune in next week on TBB! Oh, and one more thing. BEAR DOWN!
